Is glucose technically an aldehyde and fructose technically a ketone? And is sucrose technically both an aldehyde and a ketone since it's made of glucose and fructose?
Wow. I tried studying this for a few days and still get confused with what is what. Thanks for the song! I finally understand this in 2 : 40 minutes =D
i wish i would have discovered this video earlier....not 2 hours before my regent exam! please pray and wish me luckk im gunna need it i ve been failing all year
I can not thank you enough! I'm a college student with no Chemistry background except Integrated Chemistry and Physics, and I was thrown into Organic Chemistry and have been having problems memorizing the functional groups, untill I found this. This is amazing for Right Brained/musical learners. THANK YOU! :)
@Smil3Lik3UMeanIt No. Bases are ionic compounds that are made of a metal ion (like Na+) bonded to a hydroxide ion (OH-). In alcohols, there are no metal atoms...in fact, no ions at all! The OH is covalently bonded to the carbon in an alcohol, so it doesn't ionize when you put it in water.
@MarkRosengarten you throw some conc H2SO4 in PrOH and tell me that shit doesn't act like a base. Lewis, at least. BRØNSTED-LOWRY IS NOT THE ONLY ACID-BASE CLASSIFICATION, GAH.
@sergeantpimento I never said it was. I teach high school chem. These videos are geared towards high school chem students. I make no apologies for simplifying things to correlate with the New York State standards for HIGH SCHOOL chem. If you don't like it, I suggest you start your own series of videos to make up for the deficiencies in mine.
Love it!! We watched this today in Chemistry class! :) It's awesome! Although I hate this chapter on Organic Chemistry, it's hard and confusing!! Thank you for this video though!!! It really is great!!
@firebreathindragon You've got that right! In this world, you're either a nerd, or you're working for one! :) Like all the great things you have in your life? Thank a nerd. Knowledge is power...and we are power. :) Thanks for visiting.
1:23 Does that guy have a slice of pepporoni on his head? A little weird....
Once I decided to use my lunchbox as a hat in the end of fourth grade. And I ended up with ham on my head. I'll never not find it funny. And that's a double negative!
It's cool but it's a little fast. If it were a little slower it would be easier to understand and learn. Just a thought. My study group mates and I arre trying to use it to remember this.
I hate chemistry >.<

@MarkRosengarten Not strictly true - "Alcohols, like water, can show either acidic or basic properties at the O-H group. With a pKa of around 16-19"
